I started playing professional basketball in 1971, and I played professionally for five seasons before going to Philadelphia.

I always try to keep a pretty conservative demeanor on the court.

I keep both eyes on my man. The basket hasn't moved on me yet.

The ones who become stars or superstars are the ones who have a head on their shoulders and know how to use it.

The key to success is to keep growing in all areas of life - mental, emotional, spiritual, as well as physical.

When I played, the owners had the power. The prisoners are running the prison now, not the warden. The warden is strong and he has say so but, the balance of power is definitely with the players.

I think I started learning lessons about being a good person long before I ever knew what basketball was. And that starts in the home, it starts with the parental influence.
